Incomplete but accurate

I follow Wm Hamilton who arrived in MA and died in Danbury CT. This ignores that he movdd to/lived in North Kingston RI, therefore record of his children is not here, but can be had nowadays from other sources. It also has nothing regarding his parentage (Gallatin H) or references his birthplace (Lanark).
